Mini Carnival

Over the past few weeks the Year 3 & 4's have been very busy preparing for a mini-carnival. The carnival was part of our Integrated Studies Unit - Orphans of Nepal. All term we have been learning all about Nepal, including finding out about how the Himalayas were formed(Tectonic plates), Language, Religion, Food and much more. We also found out about the Orphans of Nepal Trust and the Oprhanages the Trust supports.

The Year 3 & 4's organised their own stalls - selling food and drink, playing games and running competitions. They were amazingly organised and ran fanastic stalls. Thank you so much to all the families who helped plan and organise the stalls with their children. It was a huge success!

The Year 5 - 8's came and spent lots of money! In total we raised just over $900!! This will go to the Orphans of Nepal Trust as the Orphanages wish to buy chicken coups!
Here are some photos of a great afternoon...
